Use of Caenorhabditis elegans as a model to study Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases

5 Sept 2014

Abstract excerpt

Advances in research and technology has increased our quality of life, allowed us to combat diseases, and achieve increased longevity. Unfortunately, increased longevity is accompanied by a rise in the incidences of age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is the sixth leading cause of death, and one of the leading causes of dementia amongst the aged population in the USA. It is a progressive...
